We loan instruments, if available, for a $25 deposit that will be refunded when the instrument is returned in good condition.Scrollworks encourages our students to use this loaned instrument in their school band or orchestra as long as they are fully participating in classes and ensembles at Scrollworks.

Scrollworks is all about the orchestra and the ensemble experience. We offer:

Additional Group Class - $48 per semester
Music Theory Class - $24 per semester
Private Piano and Voice Lessons offered on a sliding scale (based on income and family size) ranging from $144 to $360 per semester.

This fall we will be teaching on Monday and Thursday evenings and on Saturdays.
Classes will meet one day per week for 1 hour.
Ensembles will rehearse one day per week for 1 to 2 hours, depending on the skill level.
Private lessons are once per week for 30 minutes.

Students may not miss more than two days of class, lessons or rehearsals per semester. Please check the calendar on the home page. If you know your child will miss more than two days, please do not register. We do not offer make-up classes or lessons.

Attendance at recital camp and the final semester concert are required.

Students should always arrive a few minutes early for their classes, lessons and rehearsals. Teachers are not required to teach a student who is more than 10 minutes late. Repeated tardiness will impact placement in the subsequent semester.

Practicing at home is critical to progress on any instrument. Teachers will provide guidance for how often and how long students at each age and skill level should practice. A log will be provided and will be reviewed each week during class or lessons. If your family cannot commit to a regular practice regime, please do not register.

Integrated Experience Credits: Each semester, all students are required to attend 2 live music performances outside of Scrollworks. We will ask students to turn in a short report on each. We will provide information on free concerts and we often are offered free tickets by local arts organizations including the Alabama Symphony Orchestra and Opera Birmingham.

Munch & Music: A 30 minute performance at noon on Saturdays by gifted local musicians across many genres (such as ASFA ensembles, Hilltop Singers from BSC, opera department from Samford and soloists on various instruments). Lunch is usually provided.

Please provide additional information and/or scheduling requirements in the comment section of the registration form.Online payment of the registration fee is required at time of submission. (Be sure and hit submit here as well!) Later you will receive an invoice from our bookkeeper for any instrument deposit and/or additional classes.
